Earlier this year, I had the privilege of being a visiting scholar at the Lilly Family School of Philanthropy<\/a> in Indiana, USA, and was the first \u2018kiwi\u2019 at the school.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The Lilly Family School of Philanthropy at Indiana University, Indianapolis, is unique in that it not only teaches philanthropy from a Bachelor\u2019s Degree through to Doctoral level, but it also has a number of research institutes and a Fundraising school. <\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Alongside my role as Director, Alumni and Development at Lincoln University in New Zealand, I am studying part-time towards my Doctorate. I spent two months immersed at the Lilly School as a Visiting Scholar, and alongside my study and research, I took two courses at The Fund Raising School. I met some incredible people along the way from not only from all corners of the USA but from around the world.\u00a0 <\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

I am very grateful to Lincoln University for granting me study leave and the opportunity to immerse myself in my academic research and the practice of philanthropy in the USA. I wish to acknowledge the University of Canterbury, with whom I am a postgraduate student, for their support<\/span>.<\/span><\/b> And<\/span> I would like to express my immense gratitude to the Lilly Family School of Philanthropy and to Dr Kathi Badertscher, Assistant Dean, who helped make my visit possible.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The staff at the Lilly Family School are incredible for their breadth and depth of knowledge, including Dr Bill Stanczykiewicz, Director, The Fund Raising School, who will be leading a workshop and speaking at next year\u2019s educate+<\/strong> International Conference<\/a> in Brisbane. I encourage you to get along if you can. <\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
